Portland | Claude Conversation

​Claude Communities around the world are each taking on one big question about AI this month. For Portland, we picked this one:

​Who decides the rules?

​We're tackling a hard question together. There's no expert panel and no pitch — just Portland people talking it through, in small groups, over an evening. We'll dig into what this question means for our community, what we could actually do about it here, and what's standing in our way.

​You don't need to work in AI or know anything technical. Honestly, the conversation is better if you don't. Bring your questions, your worries, your hot takes.

​6:30 // Arrive, drinks, hellos 6:50 // The question — why I picked it for us 7:00 // Small group conversations, part one — what this means for us 8:00 // Break — food, the wall, wander between groups 8:20 // Small group conversations, part two — what we could do, and what's in the way 9:10 // Wrap up 9:30 // Doors close

​And the "what can we do about it" part is real: two weeks later we're running a Claude Impact Lab — a full-day build where we make our own local answer to this question. Event page launching soon.
